Asus pushes 2,600W into RTX 5090 to prove new cableless GPU power connector works

Forward-looking: As cases of burning and melting RTX 5090 power cables continue to mount, Asus has demonstrated that its new Back to the Future (BTF) power connector design can maintain safe temperatures while delivering more than triple the GPU's stock wattage limit. The test also revealed that BTF can work in tandem with traditional 16-pin connectors – just in case anyone ever wants to attempt a 2,600W overclock. In a recent Bilibili video, translated by Tom's Hardware, Asus China GM Tony Yu

Donald Trump will delay a looming TikTok ban for a third time

President Donald Trump will, once again, give TikTok a temporary reprieve as it faces another deadline to sell itself or face a ban in the United States. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed Tuesday that Trump will sign another executive order to extend the deadline. The latest extension — this time for 90 days — is now the third time Trump has punted on a looming TikTok ban since he took office in January . “As he has said many times, President Trump does not want TikTok to g

Hack the Planet: 90s Hacker Culture vs. Today's AI Devs

There was a time when hackers didn’t have VC funding, productivity Slack channels, or GitHub Copilot whispering autocomplete incantations. They had dial-up modems, CRTs humming like insects, and a calling—etched somewhere between cyberpunk fiction and UNIX man pages—to hack the planet. Today’s AI devs? Well, they’re optimizing prompts in WeWork lounges, juggling ChatGPT tokens, and trying not to hallucinate in meetings or machine learning models. The times have changed. But the question is: has

With 12,000 Five-Star Reviews, the Samsung 990 Pro Internal SSD Reaches a Two-Year Price Low on Amazon

When the Samsung 990 Pro SSD first came out a few years back, its starting point was around $300 for the 2TB model, an enormous cost for everyone except the most dedicated users. Fast forward to today, and this top-end drive has seen its cost decline continually but never quite to the level it is at now. Amazon is currently offering the 2TB version for just $149, which makes a two-year low even beating out previous Black Friday and Prime Day deals. See at Amazon Ultra Fast SSD This SSD is bui

AMD Ryzen 7 9700F could launch under $300 as budget Zen 5 chip without integrated graphics

Something to look forward to: AMD is expected to launch a new Ryzen 9000-series CPU without integrated graphics. The chip, recently mentioned in AGESA version 1.2.0.3e BIOS updates, has now been identified by a tipster as the Ryzen 7 9700F, which is based on Granite Ridge silicon. Replying to tipster @9550pro's X post about the upcoming Ryzen 9000 CPU, leaker @Zed_Wang claimed that it is likely to be the Ryzen 7 9700F. Built for the AM5 platform, it will reportedly pack eight Zen 5 cores and 16

Repair technician finds three of four RTX 4090s were fakes packing RTX 3000-series GPUs

Why it matters: The surprisingly common practice of replacing a high-end graphics card's GPU with a different one from a cheaper card, borking it in the process, isn't going away. A Chinese repair technician uploaded a video to YouTube showing that of the four faulty RTX 4090 cards he recently received, three of them packed RTX 3090 or RTX 3080 dies. The YouTuber explains in the video that the customer in this case paid 10,000 yuan ($1,392) for each graphics card, which were purchased from an o

The Best Motherboards: AMD and Intel

With a little more budget, you can get some really nice boards for up around $200. From day one, a stand out which we featured in our early 10th-gen coverage is the MSI MAG Z490 Tomahawk, it's a great quality motherboard priced at $190. In our testing, the Z490 Tomahawk peaked at just 74 degrees running a Core i9-10900K clocked at 5.1 GHz using 1.35v, so you don't need to spend big money to get the most out of Intel's new 10-core processor, despite the fact that it is extremely power hungry when

Nvidia confirms ‘rare’ RTX 5090 and 5070 Ti manufacturing issue

It’s true : Nvidia has just confirmed it shipped some RTX 5090, RTX 5090D, and even some RTX 5070 Ti graphics chips that were missing render units, as TechPowerUp originally reported — and that you’ll be able to get a replacement if your card was affected. We have identified a rare issue affecting less than 0.5% (half a percent) of GeForce RTX 5090 / 5090D and 5070 Ti GPUs which have one fewer ROP than specified. The average graphical performance impact is 4%, with no impact on AI and Compute w
